We had been warned that Twinning can flourish or flounder on “communications”. It is so easy to forget to send interesting items to your twin, like Prayer Topics or details of a Retreat or Easter Celebrations, to forget to send a copy of the Church Magazine, or at a basic level, forget to acknowledge receipt or pass on something to a member or office bearer. From the outset both churches appointed people to “co-ordinate all correspondence going to and from the Twin”. It is good to be able to say communicating has been a pleasure but what a challenge it would have been in the days before e-mail, SKYPE and i-phones!
